Hanks Transport Media

Hanks Transport Media.

Features:

•  The components of the inactivated virus transport medium: Hanks solution, antibiotics, BSA, cryoprotectants, biological buffers, amino acids, inactivators and RNA protectors. Which inactivate virus samples and protect RNA from degradation.
• A combination of multiple antibiotics is used in the virus transport medium to effectively prevent bacterial and fungal contamination.
• The addition of bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a protein stabilizer to the virus delivery medium can protect the virus sample and increase the separation rate.
• Thickening and anti-leakage design to ensure that the sample does not leak, in line with WHO regulations and biosafety regulations.

Hanks Transport Media VTM KITS

Hanks Transport Media(VTM）application:

Used for the collection and transportation of clinical influenza, avian influenza, hand-foot-mouth disease, measles and other virus specimens and mycoplasma, ureaplasma, chlamydia and other specimens.

• Before sampling, indicate the sample information on the label;
• According to different experimental purposes, use sampling swabs to sample the corresponding parts;
• After sampling, quickly put the swab into the sampling tube of the virus-containing transport medium, break it at the breaking point, and tighten the tube cap;
•  Freshly collected specimens can be transported to the laboratory at room temperature (5-25°C), and ice packs will be more effective when transported.
• Specimens used for nucleic acid testing should be tested as soon as possible.

The specific sampling method is as follows:

How to use nasal swab & throat swab

a) Nasal swab: Gently insert the swab head into the nasal palate in the nasal passage, stay for a while and then slowly rotate and exit. Swab the other nostril with another swab, immerse the swab head in the sampling solution, break it at the breaking point, and discard it. (Suitable for sampling with this product)

b) Throat swab: Use the swab to wipe the bilateral pharyngeal tonsils and posterior wall of the pharynx, and immerse the swab head in the sampling solution and discard it. (Suitable for sampling with this product).

•  This product is for in vitro diagnostic use only.
•  The liquid in the sampling tube is the transport medium, and the sampling swab cannot be dipped into it before sampling.
• The discarded sample collection fluid should be sterilized.
• If it is found that the delivery medium is out of date, the liquid is discoloured, turbid, or leaks. Prohibited to use it.
